If I wanted to begin karting in the USA to train for a future formula career, how would I go about it?

Jay obviously hasn't been involved in any sanctioned Kart racing here in the States, must have wasted his money on a racing school, looked at a chalk board for a few hours and got an hour of seat time for $3k, for that kind of money you could buy a nice kart and a membership at a local kart club and get all the seat time you want, then come race day you wont have to rely on what some instructor told you while staring at a chalk board and an hour of actual seat time, you get to actually experience what it feels like to get rubbed on or punted off the track by more experienced drivers, Skip Russell wont teach you that, in fact they get pissed when you start abusing there equipment. plus you find out if you have the attitude for that kind of head to head racing, believe me you'll find plenty of attitudes on race day when the green flag drops. try the IKF or WKA websites for sanctioned tracks in your area, if you have the money look to see if theres any SKUSA tracks in your area, thats where the big boys play.
